Whether you’ve been seriously injured in an auto accident, on the job, or from a defective product, hiring a personal injury lawyer is the first step in ensuring you and your family will be taken care of. If you’re worried about being able to pay for a lawyer, most personal injury lawyers work on contingency, meaning you won’t have to pay unless you win your case. We describe how our lawyers handle personal injury cases below. If you believe you have a claim for a personal injury lawsuit in Reno or the surrounding areas, give  The Law Offices of Kenneth E. Lyon III  a call to see how we can help.

Gather Evidence

Once your lawyer has agreed to take on your case, they will begin gathering evidence. This can include obtaining any available police or incident reports. The lawyer may locate witnesses and obtain their testimony. This can also include keeping a record of any evidence for the case, including photographs and videos. 

Negotiate With Insurance

Negotiating with insurance companies is time-consuming and draining. Fortunately, a personal injury lawyer will handle this task for you. A personal injury attorney can also handle all correspondence with the insurance provider and keep you from taking any actions that might damage your claim, such as providing a recorded statement.

Represent Your Case at Trial

Despite being settled most of the time, personal injury cases can occasionally go to trial. This happens when the parties are unable to resolve their dispute amicably without a judge or jury. All personal injury lawyers must be prepared to go to trial if necessary, so they frequently begin planning for it as soon as you provide them with your case. Trials can go on for several days.
